Backyard (Mis)Adventures

A happy woodpecker pecking the tree in our backyard. These birds actually "live" in the oak tree in our front yard where they drilled several holes at it. We usually see them popping their heads in and out of those holes.

This was the first time I saw them venture to the backyard, though. Well, as they say, the grass is always greener on the other side. Haha.

The woodpecker was not the only creature we saw on the trees. We also saw this hapless raccoon. Our dog might have scared it up the tree. There were actually two raccoons, but the other one was so high up the tree that I couldn't get a good shot of it.

Every creature is a blessing to thank God for.
